His name is Carlton but most call him Rocky!
In 2012, Rocky was diagnosed with thymus cancer. He has since endured surgery, tests upon tests, treatments that include chemo, scans, and the list goes on. Even after the worst side-effects and some of the toughest days anyone could imagine, Rocky is still a ROCK - always offering kind and encouraging words, sporting a huge smile, and supporting his family and friends!
God, faith, and family values are evident in Rocky's life. He and his wife, Charity, have raised three children. With increasing health concerns, Rocky's prayers at the age of 43 began to included requests for being able to take care of his family and to one day see his grandchildren. My how prayer works - Just this past year, Rocky and Charity became grandparents of TWO beautiful babies - a boy and a girl! They are certainly proud of their family!
It's not in Rocky to ask for financial help - because he is a "giver". As friends of this family, we all understand the need exists without having to ask. We understand being away from home or in a hospital is expensive, inconvenient, and stressful. But, MD Anderson Cancer Center provides a positive outlook for recovery results and that's the goal!
So, please donate and help us get Rocky "Houston Bound"!
